LED is where it's at..

Sick stance. Would so run the same if I could.

No... it's the final rolling diameter that matters.

atleast he did his own haha

I won't change tbh, there's no way I can fit anything bigger than a 205 under the guards unless I lifted the car which ain't happening.. I'll play it cool til I get pinged.

It was in my old thread.

He's using a 7 series fan I think, But it's pretty much the same for any electric fan. Joining them is easy you can put large screws into the radiators fins and it will hold there fine.

Works for me aye, not sure what's gone wrong with your setup. I used a relay from the fusebox, had spares. You should use T1 as it's the lower temp too. Which wire on the temp sensor are you grounding?

If its the early one the top of the pistons usually stick upwards, others have a dish as said. http://www.bmwccn.no/rogaland/Mahle_m20.html Look at last 2 for reference.

I mis-read title and thought you were looking for a skid vehicle and lol'd when you said a legacy.

The ECU can slightly adjust but it has no idea when your on / off boost. Thats why low boost can sort of work, but a re-map would be best at the least. Fuel pump can handle alot actually. Oil drain should be higher than the oil that is sitting in the sump so it drains properly. Have heard you can tap into the timing cover to do the drain too. Go on e30tech.com and look in the turbo section there for a few hours.

Going to go out on a limb here, But IMHO they look awful on the Ti. The shnitzers looked better. No offence. Needs more poke or smaller tyre, or just the black/polished lip on silver doesn't cut it for me..

Yes. Did you replace the whole clutch assembly?

Which ETA block have you got? What year car? If you have the later 10.2:1 pistons the 885 head will drop compression to 9.5:1 If you get a thick steel headgasket you can dropper lower still..

Would go with the 885 (325i) head if you plan on going turbo down the track. Bigger ports etc. Lower compression. Definitley worth it.

Wheres the m50 swap at? Surely must be done by now?

What makes you say it's thrashed?

Pretty sure its 17mm....

Do want.

The man at DIY garage paintjobs. Seriously.

Good stuff man been curious to see where you were at with it. Is the supercharger mounted to the engine now?

^ Your gearshifter is backwards. Take it off, spin it 180 degrees and it will sit in the middle.

so will burning tyres. lol

good sh*t!

At idle, if unplug that sparksplug while running it seems to run the same splutery misfire and doesn't change. Only under load will it misfire when driving. So if you rev it in neutral it sounds allright, just misfires at idle and misfires really bad / struggles to accelerate when in gear and trying to move.. It goes it maybe a third to a half of the way in so it's quite far up the sparkplug hole.
